About Dr. Julia Jones

A pre-eminent and award-winning broadcaster, Adam is a regular on BBC Radio 4. He often presents Start the Week and his popular series The Curious Case of Rutherford and Fry was on air for a decade.

An advocate for equality, diversity, and inclusion, Adam’s talks, along with his internationally bestselling book How to Argue with a Racist, challenge racist rhetoric with hard scientific data to show how science and history is a powerful ally against bigotry.

He brilliantly debunks stereotypes and highlights the dangers of unconscious bias, to help us all play our part in eradicating discrimination.
